If you don't have anything to say then why would you bother to register?One of the most popular sections of the GWTW Forum has long been the Swap Meet. A great place to sell old, seldom flown kites or to get great deals on used (gently flown) kites. Only registered users can see the Swap Meet section, let alone wheel and deal. 1000's (literally) of kites have changed hands thanks to the Swap Meet.There are several more benefits to being a registered user, but you'll have to join our little community to find out all the "secrets".Questions or concerns?

I'm having trouble getting my Emong to glide. Other posts suggested adjusting the tow settings to prevent diving. I see that Steve still has Zero Gs for sale. The video shows them flying like a glider plane and that's what I was hoping for with the Emong.

Two questions:Does the Emong take a lot of practice to learn to fly? I don't mind a challenge but I wish it were easier to learn.

Is the Zero G as easy to fly as the video suggests? I'm thinking that the Zero G might be a lot of fun.

The plutz is a much better glider than then the emong.....a much more funky look to it as well.I had found that the emong dove quite often as well...and maybe because of the amount of sail area it was very hard to recover outside a walk of shame.....the plutz will recover much better...and if it does end up on the ground pivot around to relaunch quite nicely too...

The Emong is a great kite, easier to turn then most. works better on a shorter line. Fly with a rod and 25' line. A good kite to teach anyone about gliding kites. Can Hand to someone and in about 15 minutes they have full control.

Wow really like the Bi Plutz and Jecko's glider looks great ... once you get a liking for the glider kites they can be awesome fun. Nothing like throwing up a kite that will just keep going in not enough breeze to fly any thing else.... absorbing and relaxing. Love the early morning with the light land breeze for the ZG.

I have both and have no problem with either, indoors or out . Emong glides further with less spine tension and I can fly mine outside on 100+ft line with ease in 1-2 mph wind, I use light Climax line on both. I find the Emong better in smaller indoor spaces than the Zero G. If you are flying indoors check out a Karl Longbottom Petrodactyl , great fun flyer.

the only glider I have ever flown is Marcos Zero-G. After 2 min. of instruction (and he had only flown it twice) I was having a blast granted it was lab grade maybe 1mph max but it was REALLY easy to fly.. WAY floaty
